Opening Day on the Bay

What a perfect day we had for our first Opening Day on the Bay with the Independence. We were joined by 12 passengers, who witnessed the blessing of the Independence and participated in the boat parade with almost fifty other boats from the San Francisco Yacht Club. A little chill was in the air and a cold wind blew us back into the club by early afternoon. Plenty of beer and great company filled the remaining hours at the dock ringing in the start of the cruising season!

Happy Opening Day 2023
